==History==
The history of the town dates back to at least the year 1024 〔Полное собрание русских летописей. — Т. 1. I. II. Лаврентьевская и Троицкая летописи. — СПб.: Тип. Эдуарда Праца, 1846. — С. 147〕 For centuries it functioned as the capital of several Russian principalities. According to O.N.Trubachyov the name of the town comes from the old Slavic verb to create (съзьдати) which also means clay-built.〔Горбаневский М. В., Дукельский В. Ю. По городам и весям «Золотого кольца». — М., 1983. — С. 130〕 It forms part of the Golden Ring. It was chartered in 1777.
After a decline in political importance, the town rose in prominence as a religious center with numerous monasteries and a remarkable ratio of churches to citizens: at one point, forty churches for four hundred families. Today, the town operates as an important tourist center, featuring many fine examples of old Russian architecture—most of them churches and monasteries. Walking through the town, one might get the feeling that every third building is a church. Although having over ten thousand residents, Suzdal still retains a rural look with streams and meadows everywhere and chicken and livestock a common sight on the streets, some of which remain unpaved. This juxtaposition of stunning medieval architecture with its pastoral setting lends Suzdal a picturesque charm and in the summer artists and easels are a common sight.
